Christie is the founder and managing partner for The Boulder Center for Play Therapy. BCPT provides a unique, strength based, play-filled therapeutic environment for children, adolescents, couples, families and adults. Play therapy isn’t all about toys & games but rather approaching yourself gently (vs. working really hard on yourself) because the openness of play builds trust in one’s self, reduces stress, encourages communication, supports learning, promotes creative problem solving, and elevates mood.

Are you afraid of being abandoned? Do you try to avoid being alone? Do you have unstable and intense relationships? Are you often confused about who you are as a person? Do you often feel bored, empty, or in deep emotional pain? Do your emotions and moods change frequently? Don’t hesitate to call for help. I have over 20 years of experience as a psychotherapist and specialize in personality issues. I will work with you to tailor a therapy style that is comprehensive and sensitive to your needs. Throughout my professional practice I have worked successfully with people who have experienced problems such as depression, anxiety, fears, emotional pain, posttraumatic and personality disorders, relationships difficulties and low self-esteem. I will help you gain self-confidence, become more successful in your life, and experience more satisfying relationships. I work with individuals of all ages, race, gender, ethnicity, and sexual orientation.

I will work with you to understand the meanings and motives of your behavior, and to strengthen your capacity to endure frustration, anger and loneliness without acting impulsively upon those feelings.
